I am a ceramic sculpture artist from Istanbul/Turkey I graduated Fine Arts Faculty Ceramic Department / Dokuz Eylul University/İzmir, Turkey in 2009. I have been working in my own studio for 7 years. My first award was the young artist festival of Alaçatı. In 2014 my installation sculpture was selected as The Work Of The Week in NEW YORK INTERNATİONAL ART FESTİVAL, in 2014 I was awarded as "Cem Baysal award" İnternational Altin Testi Seramik Competition by Rotary Club İzmir, in 2015 Ser'Es Eskişehir selected my work to exhibit in Eskisehir/Turkey. My all works were exhibited my first exhibition with other 3 artist in " +Dört " exhibition in Peker Holdings art gallery in Ankara 3 november to 13 december. Last month, 6 of my ceramic sculptures were bought by Saudi Kings wife to her art collection My series name is Flying Eyes. I started "Flying Eyes"that is my first serie in 2013. My trigger point was "prejudgements" in this serie. I think that prejudgements resultant of differences are the main reason of negativenesss in human relations. We can talk about many differences such as gender, religion, language, color,choice, belief, nation, race. These difference became and still becoming the main reason of chaos, big wars, deaths, homicides which cause serious loss in human history. Differrences will always remain on the other hand they can even may generate harmony. According to me all this violence is a result of fixed ideas, education approcah that does not encourage asking questions, evangelised hostility ultimately prejudgements.
